Ways To Treat An Insulinoma

Cryotherapy

Cryotherapy can be used to destroy cancerous cells, including an insulinoma, through extreme cold. This treatment is non-surgical and localized specifically to the area of the tumor. A cold probe is inserted to reach the desired area on the pancreas to kill off cells through freezing. While freezing of the tumor can be very effective, there is the chance a few cancerous cells may remain. However, the insulinoma will produce less insulin when it is reduced in size, often making the condition more manageable through diet and other treatment options recommended by a physician.
